Just finished....

Why I have questions to be answered. Saw a picture someplace of Buster walking dog with his girlfriend.... a day or 2 ago after his dad was sent to prison for Life. Stephen Smith ran out of gas and called Buster for help supposedly don't know if this was an add for the series or if true if so this but him at scene where this kids body was found on the road? What happens next could put this kid thru hell and maybe a cell next to his father...... Lets see.....

You may be right

Admit that I haven't read much about it...Agreed that I believe he's guilty ..My question is..He embezzled $8 million from the law firm.. He admitting to having a pill addiction. Ok, my question; Have they found the drug dealer supplying his fixes or were these doctor written prescriptions... that seems highly doubtful..But have heard ZERO 0000000 about where the drugs came from.. Seems that should be a case.Or maybe I'm confused and $8 million for ONE person's drugs isn't worth looking into these days.

Killed his wife and kid for power??
That was much later when things started to fall apart and the wife was noticing many things, like all of their money disappearing

He's also thought he could trick authorities into thinking the killing of his wife & kid was an act of revenge from others

It's only 3 episodes long

Worth watching if you can

Who is Stephen Smith? Internet calls for Buster Murdaugh to be investigated next over hit and run​


According to Greenville News, Buster Murdaugh had emerged as a suspect in the 2015 murder of Stephen Smith, a teenager who was found dead from blunt force trauma in Hampton County, South Carolina.

While the murder was initially labeled a hit-and-run by police officers, The Augusta Chronicle noted that residents of Hampton County had claimed that Buster Murdaugh had been romantically involved with Smith, and that he had murdered the teen in order to hide the supposedly taboo relationship.

According to Radar Online, at the time of his death, Stephen Smith was an openly gay man who was known as an affable, good-humored 19-year-old around Hampton County.

Stay tuned…. Smiths Mother wants justice!

Stephen Smith's death has been considered mysterious since he was found dead in the middle of a rural South Carolina road in 2015 — and questions have only intensified since the 2021 murders of Maggie and Paul Murdaugh, a mother-and-son from a prominent South Carolina family.


Smith, a 19-year-old nursing student from Hampton, South Carolina, was found dead in the early morning hours of July 8, 2015. He was discovered lying in the middle of a dark country road — 3 miles away from where his car had run out of gas — with deep gashes on his forehead, several local news outlets reported. Authorities initially thought Smith had been shot, but his death was later ruled a hit-and-run — a claim that his mother, Sandy Smith, disputes to this day.


"Sandy and I both believe that this was a murder," Smith family attorney Mike Hemlepp told PEOPLE in 2022. "Whoever did this to Stephen should go to prison."

Smith's case was initially investigated by the South Carolina Highway Patrol before going cold in 2016, according to FITSnews. In that investigation, the Murdaugh name — a powerful local family known for their longstanding law firm — was mentioned dozens of times as possibly being connected to Smith's death, FITSnews reported. However, no member of the Murdaugh family was ever questioned in Smith's death and no charges were ever filed.

Despite the initial belief that Smith's head injury was the result of a gunshot wound, his death was ruled a hit-and-run by Dr. Erin Presnell at the Medical University of South Carolina, according to FITSnews. The autopsy, which was conducted at 12:30 p.m. on July 8, 2015, found that Smith had died from blunt head trauma from a motor vehicle crash.


"In light of historical information and the autopsy findings, it is the opinion of the pathologist that the decedent died as the result of blunt head trauma sustained in a motor vehicle crash in which the decedent was a pedestrian struck by a vehicle," the autopsy read, according to FITSnews.


SCHP officers were apparently skeptical of the hit-and-run ruling from the beginning, according to Smith's case file. Dr. Presnell reportedly told an SCHP officer that no glass fragments or any other evidence from a motor vehicle were found on Smith. A search of the scene at Sandy Run Road also found no debris or tire marks consistent with a motor vehicle crash, the case file read, and Smith was found with his loosely tied shoes still on his feet and his clothes "appeared untouched," FITSnews reported.

The coroner told the state police investigator he disagreed with the autopsy findings​

In August 2015, Coroner Ernie Washington — who was present on the scene when Smith's body was found — told lead investigator Todd Proctor that he did not agree with the autopsy findings, according to FITSnews. Proctor's case notes from the conversation detailed that Washington said "he does not agree with the pathologist that the victim was struck by a motor vehicle."


Proctor, who no longer works for the SCHP, later echoed similar doubts about the hit-and-run to Fox News in June 2021.


"Nothing about this case from the very beginning pointed towards it being a hit and run," Proctor said.


He continued: "As any investigator, you go off of the evidence — there was no evidence that pointed towards this being a hit and run, or a vehicle even being involved in it. It looked like it was more staged. Like possibly the body had been placed in the roadway."

Alex Murdaugh's prisoner evaluation period is over, and he's been moved into protective custody for safety & security reasons, per S.C. Dept. of Corrections officials. Murdaugh will be separate from the general population, and the prison he's in will not be publicly disclosed.
